If ever there was a result that justified the existence of this site and proved the worth of its contributors more, then I will plait sawdust.Again, thank you.

ps. I hope I am not back again with Gimp again. I sincerely hope it has been tamed. As the cat said, when it defecated behind the door, "That remains to be seen."

Yes I do... I couldn't see my size either but as nelz said it could be held as a different unit hence the reason to just rename it.

One thing that has not changed back however, is the nonsense with the scanning in of images from my EpsonDX5050. This problem seemed to arise when the the change to 2.7.xx mysteriously occured.

The problem here is that when I try to scan in an image it will scan in only a small part of it, and trying to alter the size of the scan area is as fruitful as trying to poke smoke up a cats bum with a pin.

I can scan full pages with no trouble using other applications (e.g. Open Office,Simple Scan) but Gimp will no longer do it.

SPM shows that I have sane 1.0.14-9sane-utils 1.0.20-13xsane 0.996-2xsanecommon 0.996-2

I also get nothing but admiration for those amongst us who can really understand it.It appears to me as though this too is trying to cope with a difficult choice.edit:-The second line "/usr/lib/libgegl-0.1.so.0" is in blue on my screen.
